Mixed Media | Jewellery | Printmaker Bella Vandermeer gained her Fine Arts degree at the University of Newcastle. She says of herself that she’s a bit of a tart when it comes to art. She develops an obsession about a certain material or process and works it to death. As one obsession passes, another takes her on a ride. The diversity of her art practice fits well with her abhorrence of society’s penchant for slotting people into nice, neat categories. Love brought Belle to Tasmania, a move she has never regretted.
